As soon as he got home, Wu Lao Er ignored the wife who still wanted to discuss the little girl in green with Wu Lao Er, and dragged Wu Lao Er into the study.

"Second brother, although your martial arts are good and you can win against Wei Wuving, you must know that there are people outside the world, you must not be complacent, and you must study diligently in the future. My two brothers were originally from small families, and my father and mother were not very capable. And now I worship under the Legalist family, and I am about to enter the Dali Temple to take up a post, and you will also go to the Great Cause City with King Zhao. Although you are a eunuch, my brother also hopes that you will be able to have a future career, not asking you to glorify your ancestors, but asking your children and grandchildren to glorify the lintel and pass on a family business. ”

Looking at Boss Wu's sincere expression, Boss Wu was also a little moved. Yes, no matter how powerful you are, no matter how high your martial arts are, this world can allow eunuchs to marry wives and have children to pass on the lineage, but for people from eunuch background, the limitations are too great. Inside, it is the highest to be the head of a division and gain the trust of the emperor. Outside, in charge of a factory, commanding more than 1,000 secret agents is over. No matter which of the two, at most it is only the fourth official title, and it must be conscientious, and there is no possibility of a knighthood. It's a little better, his son will be able to compete in the future and be able to worship the family, but if he wants to have status, he must work hard for three generations before he can truly integrate into the upper class society of this era.

is like Boss Wu, an outstanding disciple of the dignified Legalist, and it stands to reason that his achievements are limitless, but he married the daughter of the eunuch and did not think about taking a concubine. Why? It is very understandable that because there is no family background and the future is uncertain, the daughters of everyone's faction have a certain role in marriage, and it is unlikely that they will marry Boss Wu of a small family.

And what about Jian Sanniang? The father was born as a eunuch, and no matter how famous and powerful other relatives are, no child sent by everyone will want to marry a eunuch's daughter as a wife. I won't be willing to be a little home.

Wu Lao Er will face the same troubles as Wu Lao Boss and Father-in-law in the future. Marrying the daughter of a small family, having children, doing a high position by himself, his son worships under a famous family, and marries a family with a similar head of the family as a wife, and it will be much better when he is a grandson, just like now when Xiao Wu Ming grows up, he will not be like the two eldest brothers of Wu. As long as Xiao Wu Ming is willing to work hard and achieve better achievements in the future, he will be able to marry a famous girl or something. Then Wu Ming's son stepped on the threshold of the famous family with one foot. And Wu Lao Er will have to repeat this process here, and at that time, with the power of the two families together, they can barely be regarded as high-ranking families.

Of course, this has to be done if everything goes well.

Wu Lao Er sighed, lamenting how difficult the future was.

But Wu Lao Er turned his head and thought about it again, why did he think so much? Who knows what will happen later. The world is not peaceful now, and the White Jade Kingdom always wants to defeat the other six countries and recreate the glory of the Great Jade Dynasty back then. And the other six countries also have the ambition of unifying the United States and lasting forever, so there are constant wars on the border.

The white jade country is located in the center, rich in products, and rich in people. In addition, it received most of the inheritance of the Great Jade Dynasty that year, so the national strength is outstanding, and the inheritance of the major factions in the country is also relatively complete, so it is ahead of other countries in terms of strength. However, the White Jade Kingdom is located in the center of the encirclement of the other six countries, although there is a dangerous pass at the junction of the Red Sun and the Blue Banner in the east, and the Qinghai State in the south is separated by a large mountain, but there is no danger between the Black Jade Empire in the north and the Huangshi Empire and the White Jade Kingdom in the northwest. Moreover, the southwest side of the Violet Empire has the largest land area and the largest number of cavalry. Fortunately, these countries are not friends with each other, and there are conflicts between them, otherwise, Wu Lao Er felt that Bai Yuguo would have choked enough.

Now this world is no longer the era when the Zongheng family was rampant during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the various factions are constantly developing, and the tricks of the Zongheng family are basically studied. It is no longer so reliable to play any more vertical and horizontal cooperation, and the emperors of various countries have a great control over their courtiers, and the good times of Lü Buwei and Zhao Gao are gone forever.

"Let's go home tomorrow to see my father, the old man is not young, by the way, you added a little sister to us a few years ago, don't you know?"

Wu Lao Er wondered when he heard it, remembering that Wu Lao Boss was much older than himself, "Brother, how old are you?" ”

Boss Wu said, "Twenty-eight, what's wrong?" ”

"Do you know how old I am?"

"You entered the palace at the age of four, and now you are eighteen." Boss Wu looked at Boss Wu and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

"You said that our father and mother will add a little sister to us, how old is that little sister?" Wu Lao Er ignored Wu Lao Er and continued to ask.

Boss Wu saw that Wu Lao Er didn't answer his words, and he didn't know what he meant, so he said: "One year older than Wu Ming, eight years old this year." ”

"Then our father and mother are expensive this year?"

Boss Wu was unhappy, "Why don't you know anything, as a son of man, you don't even know the age of your parents?" ”

"You also know that I entered the palace when I was four years old, and I only came out for two days, what can I know."

"Well, too, I don't blame you." Boss Wu looked helpless, and said to Wu Elder Wu in a serious tone: "Second child, our family conditions are not good, and my father and mother can't afford to support the two of us." The eldest brother also had a serious job after getting married, and he had to support his family, and he didn't have much to honor his father and mother every year. As for you, don't complain in your heart, you must know how many children do not even have the opportunity to read and write, and work in the fields with adults when they are about ten years old. Boss Wu sighed and said earnestly: "Although you have a bad background in the palace, it is better than farming at home, at least you still have a chance to go up, and the future will be better and better, so don't resent your father." ”

Wu Lao Er looked at Boss Wu's appearance and was speechless, and he didn't complain about anything, but he really didn't feel any feelings with his parents, the time was too short, and he was the soul of an adult, so it was really difficult to cultivate feelings.

"I remember what the eldest brother said, so how old is our father?"

Boss Wu looked at Elder Wu, and he didn't know if he really listened, "Our father is forty-eight years old this year, and my mother is one year younger than my father." ”

Wu Lao Er made a calculation, that is to say, the two of them are twenty men and nineteen women at the latest, which is not early. Boss Wu, who was born in the second year, is ten years older than Boss Wu, and he is ten years older than his little sister. This law is easy to grasp, and the key is that the little sister is eight years old and the father is forty-eight

Wu Lao Er hesitated and whispered: "This, our father's combat effectiveness is quite strong, and it is still forty years old."

Boss Wu didn't understand, "Our father didn't be a regular soldier when he was young, but he trained with the county guards at home, where did he get any combat effectiveness." ”

Wu Lao Er rolled his eyes and didn't say anything, or maybe it's normal to have a child at the age of forty in this world? Didn't say anything more on this topic.

"By the way, second child, how did you know the little girl of the Xia family?"

"Huh? I don't know. Wu Lao Er didn't react for a while, but after thinking about it, he knew who Wu Lao Boss was talking about, and pouted and said, "Is that the little girl in green clothes when you came back?" ”

"Yes, that's the daughter of the Xia family. Her father's name is Xia Shi, although he is a Confucian disciple, he is not very valued, and secondly, Xia Shi is pedantic, although he is proficient in classics, but it is difficult to achieve much in the officialdom. However, if you want to marry the daughter of the Xia family, it will not be easy. ”

"Oh." Wu Lao Er replied flatly, "How does the eldest brother know so much?" Don't you also have thoughts about the Xia family's daughter? Hehe" Wu Lao Er felt that this kind of thing should be better known to a gossipy woman like Jian Sanniang, but listening to Wu Boss's words, it seemed that he knew a lot, so he teased and said: "Brother be careful, my brother is nothing, but I'm afraid that you won't be able to get along with your sister-in-law, haha." ”

Boss Wu was very unimpressed by Wu Lao Er's attitude, "Nonsense! Don't you know that I am so devoted to learning that I am not very concerned about the affairs of men and women, and that you must not make such jokes in front of me in the future! ”

Wu Lao Er agreed with a wicked smile, and asked Wu Lao Boss what he knew. In fact, Wu Lao Er didn't think too much about Naxia Coco, but he just thought that the little girl was very cute and good-looking. Of course, for Wu Laoer, who was used to seeing countless beauties in his previous life, and his feelings, love, and gods were all dull, his appearance is not the most important, and his temperament is not the most important, only his own temperament is the most important. But it doesn't seem to matter much even if it doesn't matter to your temperament. Wu Lao Er also felt chaotic, he really didn't know what kind of woman he wanted to find as a wife, as long as he didn't get in the way, he didn't have a small belly, and he couldn't do anything endlessly. Wu Lao Er couldn't help but feel sad about the low standard of mate selection

Wu Lao Er said very meaninglessly: "Yes, yes, I know." Let's talk about it, if the little girl is not bad, it is better to marry her when she is old. ”

Boss Wu glanced at Elder Wu, "Didn't you hear me say that it's not easy for you to marry the daughter of the Xia family?" ”

"Huh? Why? Your brother and I are not bad-looking, and I don't care about my family background or Confucian disciples, right? "Indeed, Wu Lao Er is now the time of the eighteenth year of Huachun's heartbeat, although he is not tall, his family background is not very good, and he is not Pan An's appearance, but if he gets Africa, he is definitely white, and he doesn't need to jump across Pan Changjiang's basketball, and he is definitely handsome compared to Song Xiaobao.

Boss Wu rolled his eyes and said to Wu Lao Er: "You look just like an ordinary person, and your figure is not burly, well, you will grow a little taller in two years, needless to say about our family background, you are not Long Aotian, why do people have to take a fancy to you!" ”

Wu Lao Er was hit by Wu Boss, and even Long Aotian knew that what else could stop him. "I think so," Wu Lao Er smacked his lips and continued: "I think Confucianism, Confucian disciples should not pay attention to family background." ”

Boss Wu laughed angrily, "Hehe, who told you that Confucianism doesn't pay attention to family background?" Do you know that there were three sons and two daughters in that summer, except for the youngest, the remaining four children had to pass his nod regardless of their marriage. Confucianism attaches the most importance to etiquette, the so-called parents' orders, and the words of matchmakers, which Confucianism said at the beginning, but now everyone is saying so. Alas" Boss Wu sighed as he spoke, and said a little tiredly: "Now that all the schools are close to their peak, but all kinds of theories have begun to intersect, I really don't know how to divide so many schools when the time comes." ”

Although Wu Lao Er didn't study these very much, he still nodded with some understanding: "Indeed, now the doctrines of the famous family and the Zongheng family are very similar. ”

"What's more, now the four schools of Confucianism, Taoism, Yin and Yang have begun to have similar doctrines, and the famous and vertical and horizontal families you are talking about, as well as my Legalists, Moujia, etc., are really intertwined."

"Ahem, cough, in fact, big brother, you are too worried, even if it is similar, what can it be. Let me tell you, 'There are three thousand avenues, and one is the source', I don't know if you believe it or not? ”

"! You are the so-called Taoist saying of 'one life is two, two is three, and three is all things'. Don't talk about this kind of thing, right, just say this in reverse, do you think it makes sense? Everything in the world has its own reason, and its reason is not the same! Why doesn't the stone move? Why do flowers and plants grow? Why do birds lay eggs and animals do not? What can a parrot say? Why do beasts walk on all fours? Cats, dogs, horses, cows, why"

"Stop! Stop! Wu Lao Er hurriedly waved his hand to stop Wu Lao, "I know what is going on with what you said, but you don't understand it when I tell you, let's talk about something else, okay?"

Boss Wu heard the words and took the case, "Don't slander!" You are a stinky person who has not dried up, and all the classics have not yet been understood, how dare you say the word 'know'! How many predecessors in this world can't understand it, but you dare to say 'understand'! Do you know me?"

Wu Lao Er couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly interrupted him and said, "I was wrong, I was wrong, big brother, I was really wrong!" I don't speak out, the smell of milk has not dried, I beg my eldest brother for forgiveness! "Wu Lao Er is really afraid of him, the eldest brother, and he is busy asking for mistakes.

Boss Wu was interrupted, so he stopped, knowing that this guy was not right, and he didn't want to bother talking any more. I sat down and gasped.

Wu Lao Er smiled and poured a cup of tea for Wu Boss, this guy was ruthless, and said while pouring: "Okay, okay, why are you still angry like this little thing, don't be like an old lady?" (Does this sound familiar?) ）”

Boss Wu was already angry, but when he heard Wu Laoer's words, his eyes widened, and he was about to speak again. When Wu Lao Er saw it, he immediately said, "Big brother, you drink tea first, and I'll go back to the room to practice first." With that, he ran away.

Wu Laoda's words were held in his stomach, don't mention the uncomfortable energy, picked up the teacup and poured the tea into his mouth, but the water was too hot and burned his tongue, and he hurriedly spit out the tea. After thinking about it, he threw the teacup to the ground hatefully, but the teacup fell on the table leg and bounced back and hit Boss Wu's lower body. Boss Wu bent down in pain, and while covering his lower body, he shouted loudly: "Elder Wu! You wait for me!! ”

Wu Lao Er turned around for some reason, and asked Wu Lao Boss with a puzzled face: "Why did I provoke you again?" ”

Boss Wu: ""
